Case: Child's mom got married, now the child throws temper tantrums multiple times a day
Three weeks ago, one of my student's mother got remarried. As I later learned, up until she got married the child slept in her room since he was a baby (he is almost 5 now). Since she got remarried, he is defiant and refuses to do what anybody asks him if he is upset. He will scream and throw temper tantrums to get attention. I have put him on a behavior chart to let his mom know each day when the issues happen and what the issue is. Mom does not seem to have any suggestions and does not return my phone calls or emails. He has been sent to the office multiple times in the last 3 weeks, but none of the punishments or incentives seem to motivate him anymore. Does anybody have any suggestions?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As a classroom teacher, it is important to recognize student emotions and teach them how to appropriately deal with these emotions. While it is not appropriate for the child to scream and throw tantrums, he or she does need to be able to release their anger. You could develop 3-5 acceptable ways for the student to express their anger. An example would be for the student to be able to write down anything they are thinking and then throw it away. This allows the students to express their anger, but it is not disruptive to the class. I also think it will be important for the teacher to work with the student during the tantrums to let them know that they understand and hear their frustration. They child will need to fell heard if they are going to begin working through their issues and lessening the frequency and severity of the tantrums. |
